Community, education &heritage centre set in a restored Victorian School & 15th Century Guild Chapel

The Pennoyer Centre has 3 objects: education, social/recreational & heritage preservation. The Centre opens 6 days a week providing a facility where people can meet to exercise, learn or simply socialise. We have a cafe area and also a free Superfast Wifi. We stage various events every month to promote social cohesion and combat loneliness, ensuring that people can participate fully in a vibrant 21st century community.

Why the community needs us

Pennoyer's provides a central hub in the community where people in the local area can congregate and socialise. It's a multi-purpose building running a community Cafe which can operate undisturbed while other community activities, e.g. Pilates, book group, PC Help club, knit & natter, monthly lunch club are taking place in other rooms. The Café is the life-blood of the building and ensures that Centre maintains a welcoming community hub.
